Advantages of the ABV-6E Reactor Plant Based Small-Sized NPPs
· Floating and land-based small-sized nuclear power plants (SNPPs) · Weight and size characteristics of a floating power unit (FPU) and a modular portable power unit (MPPU) provide for their transportability by water and overland
· Long-term operation without refueling · Enhanced service life and lifetime of nuclear power system equipment · Passive safety system complex ensures safety of the nuclear power system under all kinds of accident conditions without personnel participation during unlimited time including blackout conditions
· Industrial construction technology, maximum degree of prefabrication · Reactor plant high maneuverability indicators · Flexible production process diagram · High export potential

Floating SNPPs · Power supply to coastal territories · Water supply to arid regions based on power desalination complexes · Power supply to surface objects of the oil-and-gas industry
Land-Based SNPPs · Power supply to the territories of hard access located on the banks of minor and freezing rivers, at continental water areas.
Underwater Power Generating Complexes · Power supply to underwater objects of the oil-and-gas industry at great depths and under ice-bound conditions.
